The earlier answer might work too, but it feels that it's too much compared to what you want to achieve. You can just change the navigation view such that it doesn't draw over the statusbar.

In your activity_main.xml change the android:fitsSystemWindows of the NavigationView element to false. Doing this will give you the desired result.

Thus the codeblock will look like this:

<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
    android:id="@+id/nav_view"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_gravity="start"
    android:fitsSystemWindows="false"
    app:headerLayout="@layout/nav_header_main"
    app:menu="@menu/activity_main_drawer"/>

try to set navigation drawer padding Top 20dp/24dp and create navigation drawer background like this.

<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:top="20dp">
    <shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="rectangle">
        <solid android:color="@color/white"/>
    </shape>
</item>

and set navigation drawer file

<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
    android:id="@+id/nav_view"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_gravity="start"
    android:paddingTop="20dp"
    android:fitsSystemWindows="false"
    android:background="@drawable/menu_navigation"
    app:headerLayout="@layout/nav_header_home"
    app:menu="@menu/activity_home_drawer" />
